Post your questions for Rosanna Arquette
Rosanna Arquette – the older sister of actors Patricia and David – found fame as the bored housewife to Madonna's bohemian drifter in 1985's Desperately Seeking Susan. Elsewhere in your cinematic memory, she helped save Uma Thurman from accidentally overdosing in Pulp Fiction, and had her fishnet stockings ripped off by James Spader in David Cronenberg's Crash. But Arquette has been in all sorts of films, opposite all sorts of actors: she co-starred with Joe Pesci and Danny Glover in trip gone wrong comedy Gone Fishin', Tim Roth and Renée Zellweger in mystery film Liar, and Christina Ricci, Vincent Gallo and Mickey Rourke in Buffalo 66. In the 2000s, she starred in the thriller Diary of a Sex Addict, as the wife of an otherwise happily married chef who has a penchant for – well, the clue is in the title. A move into directing saw her direct and produce Searching for Debra Winger, a documentary about the American actor who left the industry at the height of her career, which was selected for the Cannes film festival. And in 2011, Arquette teamed up with Jane Fonda for comedy drama Peace, Love, and Misunderstanding. On TV, she has popped up everywhere from Will & Grace to Malcolm in the Middle and Ray Donovan. Now Arquette has a role in 'mind-bending new romantic sci-fi' Futra Days, in which she plays a doctor with a time machine for rent, which sounds oddly familiar … Please get your questions in by 6pm BST Wednesday 2 July, and we'll print her answers in Film&Music later that month.

Olivia Munn shades Jeff Bezos, Lauren Sánchez with pointed comment after over-the-top $76m wedding
Olivia Munn is back at it. The actress — who made headlines in April for blasting Lauren Sánchez's Blue Origin space flight — appeared to shade the bride and husband Jeff Bezos over their $76 million wedding. One day after Friday's star-studded nuptials in Venice, Italy, Munn reacted to Mia Farrow's Instagram post praising the Amazon founder's ex-wife, Mackenzie Scott, reports Page Six. The former couple, notably, were married from 1993 to 2019 and welcomed four children during their time together. 'How awesome is MacKenzie Scott! (Jeff Bezos first wife & mother of his 4 children),' Saturday's social media upload read. 'As of mid-December 2024, she had given a total of $19.3 billion to over 1600 charitable organisations.' Munn, 44, commented, 'Truly incredible.' The Your Friends & Neighbors star wasn't the only celeb to gush over Scott, 55, in the wake of Bezos' extravagant ceremony. Actress Rosanna Arquette labelled the novelist 'a force of humanity and good,' while Sarah Jessica Parker, Katie Holmes and Mandy Moore 'liked' the post. Charlize Theron ripped into the newlyweds outright over the weekend, quipping that 'they suck.' Reps for Munn, Bezos and Sánchez did not immediately respond to Page Six 's requests for comment. Munn previously made headlines in April when she referred to Sánchez's historic, all-female trip to space as 'gluttonous' during a US Today show appearance. 'There are so many other things that are so important in the world right now,' the Newsroom alum said. 'It's so much money to go to space, and there's a lot of people who can't even afford eggs,' she added. At the time, Munn was joined by Olivia Wilde, Amy Schumer and Emily Ratajkowski in shading the former journalist. Wilde, 41, told her followers that at least the 'billionaires bought some good memes,' while Schumer, 44, joked about the items the women brought to space. Ratajkowski, for her part, said that she was 'disgusted' by the flight, which was 'built and paid for by a company that is single-handedly destroying the planet.' When Munn got married in July 2024 to comedian John Mulaney, with whom she shares two children, the ceremony was a private affair at a friend's home in New York. The low-key event was attended by son Malcolm, a witness and officiant Sam Waterston. Bezos and Sánchez's wedding, meanwhile, was swarmed with A-listers from Leonardo DiCaprio and Tom Brady to Sydney Sweeney and Kim Kardashian.

Jane Fonda enjoys Hollywood reunion with protest pal six years after they were both arrested
Jane Fonda radiated youth and energy as she reunited with longtime friend and fellow activist Catherine Keener in Beverly Hills on Thursday. The Oscar winner, who recently declared she feels 'younger and healthier' at 87 than she did in her 20s, was all smiles as she held hands with Keener, 66, outside the upscale Italian hotspot Funke. The Hollywood duo were last seen together in November 2019—being arrested during a climate change protest inside the U.S. Senate Hart Building in Washington, D.C. Joined by Rosanna Arquette, the actresses were cuffed for their part in Fonda's now-famous Fire Drill Fridays campaign, which challenged lawmakers to take immediate action on climate change. But this time, instead of raising their fists, Jane and Catherine raised their forks—enjoying a low-key lunch in the ritzy L.A. neighborhood. Fonda looked effortlessly chic in a red silk blouse and tailored navy slacks, while Keener matched her vibe in a similarly sharp navy ensemble. The Oscar winner, who recently declared she feels 'younger and healthier' at 87 than she did in her 20s , was all smiles as she held hands with Keener, 66, outside the upscale Italian hotspot Funke Before parting ways, the pair shared a warm hug—proof their bond is still going strong, even without the handcuffs. Shortly after the 2019 arrest, a spokesman for the Fire Drill Fridays group said that Fonda would be 'spending the night in jail', Deadline reported. Fonda had told reporters before her arrest: 'I probably will go to jail tonight. It will not be the first time. And I am prepared to do that.' During the protest, Fonda and her fellow climate change protesters were filmed sitting in a circle on the floor of the Senate Hart Building chanting 'we shall not be moved' and 'this land is your land'. The group also shouted: 'What do we want? A Green New Deal. When do we want it? Now.' In the early 1970s, Fonda became a prominent anti-Vietnam War activist and was arrested in 1970 at Cleveland Hopkins International Airport for allegedly carrying pills, which turned out to be vitamins. She sparked national controversy with her 1972 trip to Hanoi, where she was photographed seated on a North Vietnamese anti-aircraft gun—earning her the nickname 'Hanoi Jane.' Fonda also supported the Black Panthers and Native American rights, often speaking at rallies and participating in demonstrations that challenged U.S. military and government policies. Meanwhile, earlier this month, the Hollywood legend revealed she refuses to play the 'kooky grandmother, or the dying mother with dementia' in her acting roles as she feels as vibrant as ever. 'People have so many stereotypes of older people. I'm 87, and I feel younger and healthier and a greater sense of well-being than I had in my 20s, 30s, 40s, and 50s' she tells the Daily Telegraph. Fonda added that she feels the work she is offered these days often 'isn't worthy' of her. 'I'm 87, I don't feel done yet. Roles that I'm offered are really sad' she told the publication.
